You have forgotten your equals signs in your alt statments.

alt="insert text here"

      <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="Twitter logo">
      <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="Facebook logo">

The above should work for you.

Happy coding

aaah! Cheers! Much appreciated! (think i need a coffee break!)
